Question

I am a bsnl 500C customer.
When i am downloading torrents in utorrent it is showing that no incoming connections.
I want to forward the port.. pls help me to do that.
Which port will I use???

Answer 1

Use 60666.It has relatively less traffic than other ports.For more details how to port forward your modem goto www.portforward.com and select the modem model and it gives you a tutorial for how to portforward.Enjoy good speeds on torrent

Answer 2

Other than avoiding a port in the 6881-6999 range (as these are often blocked by ISPs), the port number does not make much of a difference.

uTorrent suggests a port number above 10,000 and Vuze suggests a port in the 49152-65534 range.



The important things in clearing a port are to set exceptions in any firewall or router.

Answer 3

Make sure your router as UPNP (Universal Plug n Play) turned on, and that you turn it on in uTorrent as well. This should work (this is the configuration I have)



You might also want to try using a random port (uTorrent can select a random port each time it is started), in case your ISP catches on and blocks your port.
